The Butler's Comforts: Bergamot tea, smoked vanilla bean, warm bread, and the slightest crack of black leather. Discipline and care embodied.

Pirate Witch: Exotic spices, sea salt, magical incense, creaking redwood, red musk, and cinder smoke, a memory of the sea, cursed treasure, and a stranger's perfume.

Familial Hopes: The love of siblings long lost. Verbena, vetiver, sweet grasses, misty lilac, and the faintest hint of rolanberry wine.

Questionable Royalty: A princess deserves every treasure. Purple rose petals, orris root, warm Steppe spices, oud, and frankincense.

Ghost in the Attic: The bats' best friend. Violets, myrrh, blackened pomegranite, brown sugar, and black fig.

Tempered Steel: Sakurai, ginger, and persimmon with the slightest undercurrent of molten metal. The clang of a blacksmith's hammer and the softness of eastern blossoms.

The Gentleman's Game: Bourbon, leather, musk, tobacco, and a salty, copper tang. The pounding of fists and the cheer of a crowd.

White Kitten In the Garden: Sweet pea with stargazer lily, calla lily, heliotrope, honeysuckle, white musk and a touch of fresh pear.

Thavnairian Nights: Warm, exotic spices forefront with jasmine, orange blossom, and champaca. The music and dances and scents of the bazaar.

To Climb the Mountain: Rocks remember when they were mountains; Mountains remember when they were sand. Smoked oud, black cardamom, amber, bezoin, and vetiver.

Fireplace Brooding: An Ishgardian's favorite hobby. Oakwood smoke, roasted chestnut, honeyed labdamum, spiced wine, and a touch of dragon's blood resin.

The Pale Dark: The princess's seducer. Opium smoke, black musk, ozone, night-blooming flowers, and an echo of brimstone.

Golmore: Shadows of home. Crushed jungle blooms, balsam, black ironwood, elder bark, cabreuva, and moss.

Like Real People Do: Bittersweet silence, a tsundere hit of sharp, bitter grapefruit made sweet and warm with the addition of honey, wine, and ginger.

The Hunter's Cache: Balance in all things. Tonka bean, olbanum, leather, toasted sandlewood, warm russet musk, and earthy mushrooms.

Tea and Comfort: “No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face." Spiced black tea, sweet maple, the earthy crinkle of golden leaves under foot, and the scent of fading grass.

Trinkets: Summer picnics and faires, the scent of candy floss blending with meadow flowers and the little mossy rocks at the edge of a stream. Sometimes the best gifts are the smallest and most unexpected things.

Hello | Goodbye: "It's very breathy on the bits." Indigo musk, wild plum, benzoin, and patchouli, with a slight breath of tobacco smoke and a bad boy's leather coat.

Blood and Ink: The writer's soul. Black coffee and blacker ink, the dusty vanilla scent of old books and the wood and leather of libraries.
